WHY I FEEL LIKE A COMPLETE FAILURE

There are only so many podcasts a person can watch. Religious people will say that you just need to read the Bible and pray more. Meditation teachers will say that you just need to meditate more. Gym people will say that you just need to lift weights more. There are only so many things a person can do to distract themselves. Inevitably, the pain always finds it's way back.  I am a total failure. A complete and utter failure. I went back to school and got a Master's degree to close a gap on my resume, and got myself back in to my career field. Then the pandemic came along and put another gigantic gap right back on my resume. I failed to close that gap in enough time to save my relationship. I could have gone to work part time at McDonald's or Disneyland, instead I spent 3-4 years building a YouTube channel under the assumption that the channel would pay out significantly more over time.

BE FLOWERFUL | MIKE TYSON SPEAKS w/ SADHGURU

"When things are going well, everyone is fantastic. When life turns against you, still, are you fantastic? That's the question."

Mike Tyson recently sat down with Sadhguru and asked him some "hard hitting" questions about life. On the subject of self improvement, Tyson, who grew up on the streets in a rough and "filthy" part of town, asks the yogi why one should not focus on "improving" one's self.

Sadghuru continues: "We always use lotus flower as symbolism for human growth and development. Lotus flower grows best wherever filth is really thick... grows well because there is filth. It stays in the filth but untouched and fragrant.

So this is a choice that all of us have: either we can develop allergy to filth and run away and live in a mountain cave, - there also filth will follow you in your head, it won't leave you - or we can become part of the filth, or we can blossom in to a fragrant flower. This is a choice every human being has every moment of their life. Will they exercise this choice? That is a question mark."

Mike Tyson: "Yeah, I'm very flowerful." 🤣

In all seriousness, this is a great video that may help to ease or re-focus the minds of those who may or may not be going through a hard time. Just wanted to share. Cheers. 🤘
